Rockport x UNDRCRWN


So another collabo graces our mince pies.....NICE UP!





"Melton wool and suede on the black/pinstripe upper. bright pink waxed laces offset the dark upper to coincide with the "Miami sunset" theme fashion expert Kari Cruz had in mind".


It looks like these are gonna be a Black Friday release, so it means if you want them, you gotsta be on it as they are available only to 100 lucky people worldwide, so keep checking the website for more info.


RiRi Fierce

So apparently yesterday night at the American Music Awards, some of the performers took portraits backstage.....and here are the ones from Rhianna's little sesh.........I am really feeling RiRi at the mo, although I do worry that like Beyonce, she is rushing down the fashion lines a bit too quick, like faster than Topshop can keep up with.....I'm not gonna hate on her garms though coz she is obviously having a moment and working out who she is etc, I mean she is only a young girl still......


So the whole reason I put this up (coz let's face it, we only need to go to Bossip if we want to see what RiRi is wearing every 5 minutes, and we do, don't worry!! ) No, no, there is a point behind this post!

Basically I wanted to elaborate on this whole Fifth Element thing that is re-surfacing, or more specifically Jean Paul Gaultier inspired garms.........I'm really feelin the whole bandage's up, bondage-y nakedness that we keep seeing.... Props Rhianna and Lady GaGa ( Or more likely props to Mariel Haenn and B. Åkerlund - their stylists p.s. read an interview in Anthem Magazine with the brains behind the GaGa here)








Two Turntables and a Microphone: The Life and Death of Jam Master Jay

Now this looks to be pretty good......I didn't even realise that JMJ's death was unsolved, I thought it was a clear-cut case and that the culprits had been caught ( I have a biography of JMJ that is still yet to read, maybe this would have explained that....) Anyway, I doubt that this will have the answers or that the murderer is discovered and taken to prison at the end of it, but I should think that it will be a good look into some of what we already know, and A LOT of things we didn't know about him......So watch out for the film thats comin to ya live soon......

Kelis back in the day

Before she had a "always gona be in Beyonces shadow' music career, got banged up by Nas then took that boy to the cleaners, $44,000 a month- that bitch is eating good! Rightly so I might add. She was doing the model thing.

Pixie Lott has done a T-shirt for Moschino (I VERY much doubt she designed it, more likely she picked a design from a load that someone else did)??? Im confused?? Have a missed something here?? Is Pixie Lott a cool kid?? I just dont understand why they picked her?? Seriously I'm well confused and dissapointed in one of my fave brands hmmmmmm anyone wana explain??





And yes I am aware it is for charity but that doesn't make it ok, ok? Im gettin really bored with celebrities becoming fashion designers-its bullshit!

Christian lacroix




WHAAAAAAAAAT! Christian Lacroix went into administration last Thursday!



"The commercial court in Paris placed Christian Lacroix into administration for a period of six months yesterday.
It remains unclear whether the couture house will show at the next Haute Couture fashion week in Paris which takes place July 6-9.
Last week Christian Lacroix said it planned to file for bankruptcy protection after it was hit by falling sales.
Christian Lacroix himself, who set up the label in 1987, is reported to have said he will give “200%” to keep the fashion house running. Reports suggest that the designer is owed around €1.2 million (£1m) by the company."*

Michael Jackson


Before I start anything on here again, I gotta say R.I.P. to the king of not only pop, but pretty much all music....


All Kings Die Young seems to become a truer statement everyday.

Alternative Miss World 2009


As Brian Eno once remarked,‘The Alternative Miss World should be entered for the Turner Prize!’

The event that brought Leigh Bowery to London, that intrigued artists from Brian Eno to David Hockney, that has attracted fashionistas from Zandra Rhodes to Ryan Styles - The Alternative Miss World - a beauty contest like no other – ricochets back into the limelight for its 12th outing since 1972 at London's premier venue The Roundhouse on Saturday May 2nd 2009.

Artist Andrew Logan's Crufts-inspired competition thrusts 20 hard-core exhibitionists, including head-hunter Janet Slee, Gallery owner Matthew Flowers, club phenomenon Daniel Lismore & milliner Piers Atkinson, onto the stage to compete through Daywear, Swimwear and Eveningwear for the ultimate accolade; the coveted title of The Alternative Miss World. Judged on poise, personality and originality by a panel of the ruthless crème de la crème of the creative world, contestants pull every trick in the book to gain attention, favour and those all-important votes. Past competitors have included Jubilee's Jenny Runacre, Norman Rosenthal in Sarah Lucas, 80 year-old Russian Pani Bronua and ‘Transformer’ Burnel Penhaul. Expect cross-dressing, nudity, absurdity, art, gigantic looks, mechanical costume, raw sexual energy, laughter and shock!

The Alternative Miss World
The theme is The Elements
The place is The Roundhouse
The date is 2nd May
The time is 8.00 pm
The night to crown it all!

Tickets: £27.50 Groundlings and £50 Seated. Available from the Roundhouse Box Office on 0844 482 8008 / www.roundhouse.org.uk
